A Cold Case Murder Confession

"I'm tired of living with my lie.” Fourteen years after a New Mexico man went missing, Tony Ray Peralta said he was tired of living with guilt. Peralta borrowed someone’s cell phone at a Roswell Allsup's gas station, then called 911 to confess to the murder of his landlord. Peralta eventually led local police officers to the home where he said he’d buried William Blodgett's body in 2008. Now, he's charged with murder.

This week - KRQE Investigative Reporter Ann Pierret joins Chris and Gabby to discuss the unexpected cold case confession. Why did Peralta confess now? Is he telling the truth about what happened?
